One of these methods became clear last
January 11, 2008, when I was alerted to
a video on Youtube that somehow suggested I
appeared in it.
The video was announced by the uploader as
follows:
Messian Dread: Rastafarians V. the
Trinitarian Pagan Cult' is it the non-Roman
Christianity of the Rastafarians that is
Satanic, or instead that of their opponents,
the followers of the Constantinian Roman
edict at Nicea? We ask this question to
Messian Dread.
this channel recomends neither the
Rastafarian nor the Pagan theology of Rome.

As I watched the video, it became clear that
it was taken from a series of reasonings by
Mutabaruka, a well respected independent
freethinking Rastafarian and DUB Poet, whose
music is reviewed on the Dubroom and whose
reasonings I would recommend listening to, even
though I personally disagree with him on a
number of issues.
Issues, not foundational for Rastafari but
very much so for the Christian Faith, of which I
know myself to be a member too.
What was not clear, though, was just what my
name was doing there in that video. The
presentation somehow suggested that it was me
speaking there, and I could not imagine why
someone would suggest a thing like that.
They couldn't have done it out
of love and respect for the Movement of
Rastafari, that thing was quite clear to me.
They were not Rasta's either. In fact, they were
anti-Rasta and obviously trying to provoke
something.
After all, in their own words they did "not
recommend Rastafari" and talked about the
"Christianity of the Rastafarians" where there
is no such thing as the "Christianity of the
Rastafarians".
I did a little research and discovered an
article called "Rastafarians
v. Pagan 'Christian' Messian Dread",
wherein some thing became more clear. These
anti-Rastafarians considered me a Pagan for
worshipping Yesus Kristos as JAH and
acknowledging the Trinity, just like the
Ethiopian Emperor did when he assumed the name
Selassie (Selassie means Trinity).
The article started with a link to the video
on Youtube and the following review of it:
Their (The Rasta's in the Video,
MD) quarrel is with the "white Christ" in
whose name racist crimes have been
perpetrated, not the true Christ, Messiah
Yahshua. We endorse their rejection of the
Pagan Cult, Toam Trinitarianism, whether
Catholic or Protestant, since together with
the Pauline error, extinguishes the firs of
Yeshua's teaching on Salvation. Yet we do
not endorse the Unitarian,or Trinitarian
Selassie religion, though its Christian
spirit of Messianic Judaism will most likely
be greeted with mercy and grace from the one
YHWH, the most gracious and merciful.

I recognized the page as one of a
Christ-denier. All kinds of Bible scriptures, a
denial of the writings of Paulus the Apostle,
and an inability to see any Christianity outside
of a denomination or other ism.
Signs of con-fusion or Babylon all over! |
